Thank you, updated.

Looks good, but fails under the following conditions in zsh 4.3.10:

1. I have aliases for ls with various options: l, lr and lrt
2. I then type lrtt and it highlights as I would expect, the whole way along (including lrtt as an error, as it does not exist)
3. Hitting backspace to delete the last t still has the buffer highlighted as an error

This works fine for me... Maybe you have special keymapping config (zkbd ?). This is what the "backward-delete-char" is for.

Aha! That made me think, and it turns out that I'm using vi-backward-delete-char. Adding the hook to it in the same way as lines 44 and 47 works beautifully :-)

Yep, I merged your changes.

I've moved this to a project:
